Click Master planning > Setup > Coverage > Coverage groups.
Click New or press CTRL+N to create a new coverage group.
Enter information that identifies the coverage group and then select the work-days calendar to use.
On the tabs that remain, enter the detailed settings that are used to calculate requirements for the items that are linked to the coverage group.
You can link an item to the coverage group by using the Coverage group field on the Item coverage form.
Note
If you do not link a coverage group to an item, the program uses the General coverage group that is specified in the Master planning parameters as the default.
